TGF RELEASE DAY BLOG HOP...HAPPY JULY!...

WELCOME to the JULY RELEASE event...and another awesome BLOG HOP with the new DT at The Greeting Farm! Today we have not one...not two...but SIX new releases at the Farm and they are all waiting to come to you, rock your creative minds, and quite possibly, even make you blush :)

....and of course, you know what that means! The BIGGER the release? The BIGGER the prize! Can you believe that ONE lucky winner will take home ALL SIX of the new stamps...the ENTIRE July release! That's one BIG prize!

What's more? Well, we are SO excited about our July stamps that we didn't want to stop there! IN ADDITION, one lucky winner will ALSO be randomly chosen to take home the new Blush Society line, that's 4 stamps in all for this month! Both winners will be drawn as a result of completing the Blog Hop and going back to the TGF Blog to leave a comment...so be sure you get your entry in....and hey! Who DOESN'T love a bunch of amazing inspiration on the way!

My card today is inspired by the SUMMER FUN we are having this week. Whew! Every day I've been to the lake, pool, movies, or some fun activity w/ the kids and this was TRULY a week to remember. We have been HAVING A BLAST, and this sentiment truly says it all w/ little Miss Amelia:

LOVE this "SUMMER FUN" set- it's right up the Diedrich family's alley and I'll definitely be using it again SOON! The papers are the adorable "Hometown Summer" stack from Pink Paislee- could that be more awesomely appropriate? Don't think so! ;)

I have to add that today is a VERY special day for me. 18 years ago, my hubby and I were two crazy kids that had hung out a few times together in a mutual circle of friends. It took him half the summer to work up the nerve to ask me out, and when he finally did, we had known each other for a while by then and I guess you could say he was already 'smitten'. :) heehee. Well on July 1, 1993 we went on our first date and at the end of it, since we'd already been good friends for a while, he said "I love you". TWO. CRAZY. KIDS.18 years later... July 1, 2011...4 kids later...I guess you could say I'm kinda smitten, too <3 Yayyy!

Alright...onto the HOP! Let's get started...and don't forget to START on the TGF Blog, or head back there in case you get lost along the way :)

Thanks so much for the awesome welcome of our new TGF Farmers this past week. I can't believe we're already through with our first week of previews and they have done AMAZING! Well, I'll be seeing you VERY soon around blog land. Good luck to all who enter and ENJOY the JULY RELEASE atThe Greeting Farm!

I have no patience and never win anyway so I've already been to Claudia and Co. I bought O&A, both Blush Soc. ladies and the new awesome creeper (which BTW your daughter did an incredible job with). I can't wait to get them. This was such a fantastic release!!!

Awww, congrats on your first date anniversary!!! You do sound a bit "smitten"!!;) Maybe that's the look Amelia has in this stamp. Naw, I think she's been a little naughty and pushed someone in the pool.

Jessica, your card is so cute and SUMMERY! I LOVE it! You're right, the paper couldn't be more appropriate...so summery, too...with gingham and the watermelon (at least that's what it looks like) print!Congrats on 18 years with your husband...that is such an AMAZING love story!

Wow, she is so adorable and your coloring is amazing. Love your card.Congratulations on your 18 years "anneversary". My 30 years will be on the 4th of july, just can't believe it. Time flies.Hugs, Yvon

Hiya Jess,I can't believe what beautiful work I've seen along the way in this bloghop. and then here I am looking at your summery card so fresh and clean with that adorable little Amelia. Oh my she's a cutie... No doubt about it, I have to have this stamp set. Your card is just beautiful girl.Thanks so much for organizing another AWESOME bloghop.Big Hugs,Lynda

BTW, Carisa's link keeps taking us back to the TGF blog, not hers. And could you ask Denice to lax the security on her comments? It is really picky and keeps bouncing me from leaving a comment without letting some cookie thing get on my computer. Sorry to ask, but you are the awesome TGF trouble shooter.

Hi Jessica. I love, love your card. She is just too cute and I love those papers. After I am done with the blog hop I am sooo going to see if I can find it on-line. lol..Sounds like you have had a wonderful week with your babies. I love spending time with my kids like that. You don't have to spend a penny yet you have so much fun being with them. Happy 1st date anniversary. Awesome story. I have always said that when it is right you don't have to take forever. My Dh and I were married in April of 1993 and our first date had only been in Aug. of 1992. You just know don't you? Hope you have a wonderful weekend and a Happy 4th of July. Hugs, Lisa G

Happy 18th Anniversary to you and your honey on your first date!!! I remembered my first date with my hubby, I got sooooo sick, lol! Anyways, have a great weekend and your card is so so adorable!!! Love it! :)

Awww, I love your card! All the layers are just the perfect background for the adorable Amelia - your story made me all gooey inside!!! It's so sweet to hear of that spark still being there all these years later! It's been an amazing week designing for TGF - I'm looking forward to the rest of my time...hoping time will slow down just a smidge so I can enjoy it while it lasts!!! :D

Amelia is just sooo cute Jess, love her in these colors. Sounds like you guys are having lots of fun on your Summer holidays!
